Thin white lattimo and black glass canes are embedded within clear glass, forming refined pinstripe and lattice motifs characteristic of high‑quality Murano work.

The 10‑inch vase on the left, designed by Dino Martens for Aureliano Toso, features an oval body that tapers into a slender neck with a gently flared lip. Its filigrana pattern presents vertical white ribbon stripes on one side, contrasted by black canes on the other, all set against a transparent glass ground that highlights the precision of the cane work.

The central vase, the tallest at 16 inches, has an elongated hourglass profile with a pronounced high waist. Its surface displays a cross‑hatched white filigree pattern suspended within clear glass, giving the piece a light, architectural presence.

The 10‑inch vase on the right has a rounded, onion‑shaped body that swells at the center before narrowing into a thick cylindrical neck. Its tight diagonal swirl of white canes echoes the patterning of the taller vase, creating a cohesive visual relationship within the group.

Together, these three vases form a striking mid‑century Murano ensemble, unified by technique yet individually expressive in form and pattern. See less
